Thanks for Replying, Carolina,My credit score is close to 800 (shouldnt be a problem) last time I checked few months ago and property is long term rental producing good return.

Co-op broker fees have been diminishing over the last few years, and I think it will accelerate.  

Last week former owner filed appeal in district court.

Unfortunately, real estate is often messy so I can't say I'm too surprised, so I'll do what I can to talk through each thing.The rate float is not uncommon, as we've seen the 10 year treasury fluctuate a bit the last month or so, so I wouldn't be surprised if they had originally quoted something (guessing low 7s?)

My question is - How will an appraiser appraise the property without there being any duplex/triplex's sold within the last year?

As an owner of one rental property, I found out that I was/am supposed to send a 1099 to a contractor who did some work for us on our rental property last year, and file a 1099 on that same contractor with the federal government.

Hi Laura, Here's my advice Attend Real Estate Networking Events, Join Online Real Estate Communities, Utilize Real Estate Investment Clubs, Network with Real Estate Professionals, Create a Professional Online Presence, Utilize Referrals, Partner with Experienced Investors, Attend Real Estate Auctions, Offer Value, and you know what's the last?

For that last reason they may not lend to a newbie and want you to have several deals of experience to qualify. 3.

When you add up the lost wages, travel, lodging, lost rent and the cost to pay us to fix what they did incorrectly, they turn their $3,000 job into a $20,000 job.Literally every year for the last decade I've seen at least 1-2 guys do this.

Hi Ertha,We have been flipping in Toledo since 2014.One of the first companies to do as many deals as we have 👍We get a lot of deals from wholesalers, disposition managers and believe it or not Craigslist.I feel like there is always a deal to be found on Craigslist.You have to have feet on the ground to inspect, be quick and close with cash.The good one's don't last long.Thus the importance of establishing the right people on the ground before investing in a specific market.Wishing you much success
